How to unlock the Minted achievement in NBA 2K22 - Definitive Guide

Before I start, I just wanted to say that this is entirely luck based. Cards are not defined by who they are, what they are, or what their stats are to be given a higher grade than others. You simply put them into the grading service, wait a while, and when you open the pack, it will have had a random grade applied to it. It’s incredibly dumb and I feared I’d be at this one for a while…but…I can’t guarantee this method will work for you, but it’s the best one to try.

I have graded about 30 cards so far. Mainly all singles, I’ve done a few three’s and one set of ten. The set of ten is what got me this achievement - (UPDATE) however, it does seem the chances of getting a 10 through a set of 3 cards is actually quite high.

Go to the Grading Service tab, located under one of the MyTeam tabs in MyTeam. It’s not difficult to miss, trust me.

Give it a select, and make sure you put a load of low 70 to high 70 cards in there. Why? These are a lot cheaper than higher overall cards. You have to make sure they are Original Owner cards however. These will have a little holographic badge on them that when you flip the card over, will say “Original Owner”. You will not get this achievement from buying a 10 graded card from the Auction house, or buying a card from the AH and sending that for grading. They have to be cards you have been the first and only owner on.

Once you have 10 cards in, send them away, and come back to that tab in the time it tells you to. Open the packs and hope you get a 10. You’ll know immediately when you do because the achievement pops before the card even flips over.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of this achievement, it’s all RNG. There is no set way to do it. But, I tried many single card gradings and got awful gradings so I do not recommend doing just singles. Maybe it was luck I got a 10 in my ten card grading sesh, but that seems to be the most efficient and less time consuming way. It might take you a few goes of 10 card gradings, but you should eventually get one in the end.

Best of luck!

Thanks that definitely helps by placing 10 at a time. I was just doing 1 every so often.

I actually had a second 10 get graded through the set of 3 cards ^. Going to amend the solution to reflect that 3 and/or 10 seems to be the best way go!

This grade 10 is killing me, sitting at a collector level of 800 cards and countless duplicates just can’t get a 10.
I hate luck based achievements.

@McGuirre - I would personally focus on doing any of the objectives in the Season that will give you enough XP to unlock league packs etc. Doing Triple Threat offline also provides packs. Check MyTeam’s Twitter for locker codes that also give you a chance at packs. If push really did come to shove, buy some VC and buy a bundle of packs, you’d be guaranteed to get players then.

@WaggiesaurusRex - Appreciate it, I've been hammering triple threat offline so much it takes me like 15 wins to get the next pack haha, I think I have just been really unlucky with my gradings, must have sent off about 35 cards and not one single 10, been sending them off in 3s as suggested

@McGuirre, save up 10 cards and try and grading that way...I'd be incredibly surprised if you didn't get one in a few bundles of those. Keep us updated!

I've sent in close to 500 card for grading. Haven't gotten a 10 yet. Nonsense achievement.

Finally got it, just a heads up it unlocks as soon as you reveal the card not the whole 10 box. I was under the impression opening the 10 box immediately unlocked the achievement.
Made for a great surprise when I thought it was another wasted box. Thanks Zion!!

I also finally got it, must have sent off just under 100 cards but eventually got it. For anyone else who is trying to get this save up for the 10 bundles and send them off in 10s, in terms of getting packs play triple threat until you need a stupid amount of wins to get packs, also there is a daily challenge which just involves beating a team on pro difficulty for a guaranteed player pack every day. Keep an eye on new challenges for packs as well as they add some easy ones every now and again and finally check MyTeam on twitter for locker codes. Found these tips the easiest and fastest way to get packs without having to spend real money

^ You have to complete challenges, or play the Auction House by sniping cards and flipping them for a profit. There is no easy way to do so.

I'm whining here in hopes that this will increase my luck: I've sent over 300 cards now and nothing. This Achievement is a nightmare.

502 cards later and it's done, with some Gold player on the Sixers. Towards the end I went back to boxes of ten instead of three.

This better not return next year.
